title: Typical pattern of the Kaufman-Assessment Battery in children with developmental language disorder.
abstract: In this study we used the Kaufman-Assessment Battery for children (K-ABC), which assumes a dichotomy of sequential versus simultaneous processing of intelligence, in order to describe the typical pattern of processing in 25 children with normal nonverbal intelligence and developmental language disorder (DLD) of the phonologic-syntactic subtype, a mixed receptive-expressive DLD with grammatical and phonologic deficits. The results of the K-ABC showed a significant deficit in auditory sequential processing, whereas simultaneous processing was normally performed.
